Ah Dialog. There are so many search systems and databases, but I think Dialog will always be my favorite.
Whenever given the chance, I still teach the Dialog command line interface to our students at UCLA because they need to know what goes on underneath the hood of any search engine. As information professionals, they need to understand that those search results don't just appear by some magic.
